engine seized, any tips and tricks?
I have a 91 Caprice that has been sitting about 2 years. Now that I've fixed what was wrong with it, it seems the engine has seized up. I had it turning over less than six months ago. I've read other forums, used the recommended oils in each cylinder, now I am waiting for it to penetrate. Other than the crank bolt, any other ideas for getting it broken loose?

get a fly wheel turner and work it back and forth ,some times a little atf in the cylinders helps .

Once it frees, do not turn it anymore. Mineral spirts has almost no lubricating properties.
